Simon Says Stamp Sketch Challenge!

Quick Note: This is my second post of the day! Be sure to visit my 150,000 visit GIVEAWAY in the previous post!


Yes, that's right! This week over at Simon Says Stamp Challenge blog we have a fun new sketch for the challenge! It's a great one, too!


The team is playing with goodies from My Favorite Things this week, and I chose the fabulous Mini Wavy Pennant Dies! They are SO FUN!


A Banner Hello


I first put assorted washi tapes onto cardstock, and then ran them through my die cut machine to get the adorable flag cuts! The papers are all from the Basic Grey What's Up! line! The sentiment is from the Studio Calico/Hero Arts Hooray! Set.


Banner Hello (detail)


AND...as an added bonus, while making this card, I discovered that toothpicks actually go right through a Xyron 'X' sticker maker QUITE NICELY! LOL! Just say'n. HA!

As usual, Simon Says Stamp is offering one lucky winner of this challenge a $50 voucher to the store! YAY!


I am linking my card up to the Paper Issues Wishy Washi Challenge, too!

Okay, the washi tapes on cardstock and then cut into banner shapes is just the most brilliant thing I've read all day. Thanks for sharing that tip! I've been having fun with the What's Up line myself. Although, now that I think of it I uploaded other stuff today. Ah well....
